As the editor-in-chief of Australia’s premium homewares magazine, I have to sift through all of the lovely things that come across my desk, try them out and discern which ones I think you’d love to see on the pages of Home Beautiful. While I’ve learned to be highly selective, as you’d expect, along the way there are certain things I covet for my own home. I can’t help but share a few of my favourite things – I’ll be adding them to my wishlist!


Tado throw in Charcoal sand
$99.95 (usually $199), Country Road
This neutral throw combines two of my favourite things to add a little luxury to the sofa: A classic check and a comforting texture.

Semi-automatic espresso machine with burr grinder
$849 (usually $999), KitchenAid
Once this beautiful espresso machine from KitchenAid hit my benchtop I said ‘Goodbye’ to pods! Though this takes a little longer to prepare, it’s worth it – I haven’t made a pod coffee since.

‘Pomponette’ champagne coupes, set of 2 in Clear & Multi
$149, Maison Balzac
I absolutely can’t live without beautiful stemware, and these gorgeous little Pomponette coupes by Maison Balzac are a party in a glass!

Perrier Jouet Blanc de Blancs
$140, Vintage Cellars
Speaking of parties, you can’t celebrate without a great champagne and this Perrier Jouet Blanc de Blancs is sublime.

Titanium Always Pan Pro
$225 (usually $330), Our Place
I’ve heard these pans are indestructible and it’s the first ever non-stick technology made without PFAS (AKA forever chemicals).
I would cook everything from stir-fries to frittata, to steak in this because it will also go in the oven, withstanding up to 535°C.

Trudon flower candlestick
$108, Myer
I light candles every night and I can’t think of a prettier way to display a taper than in this gold-plated candle holder from Trudon.
